Application of swarm intelligence algorithms in solving the inverse heat conduction problem
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2012, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper a proposal of using selected swarm intelligence algorithms for solving the inverse heat conduction problem is presented. The analyzed problem consists in reconstructing temperature distribution in the given domain and the form of heat transfer coefficient appearing in the boundary condition of the third kind. The investigated approaches are based on the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm and the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm, the efficiency of which are examined and compared.

Improved GETMe by adaptive mesh smoothing
Mesh smoothing improves mesh quality by node relocation without altering mesh topology. Such methods play a vital role in finite element mesh improvement with a direct consequence on the quality of the discretized soluti...
Efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling for electrical impedance tomography
This paper studies electrical impedance tomography (EIT) using Bayesian inference [1]. The resulting posterior distribution is sampled by Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) [2]. This paper studies a toy model of EIT as the...
Identification problems of Recurrent Cascade Neural Network application in predicting an additional mass location
The paper is a development of research originated in [8]. The identification problem deals with searching the location of a small mass attached to a steel plate. The corresponding inverse problem is based on measurement...
Sequential stochastic identification of elastic constants using Lamb waves and particle filters
Sequential stochastic identification of elastic parameters of thin aluminum plates using Lamb waves is proposed. The identification process is formulated as a Bayesian state estimation problem in which the elastic consta...
Improved two-dimensional cracked finite element for crack fault diagnosis
In this paper the two-dimensional finite element with an embedded edge crack proposed by Potirniche et al. (2008) is improved further for crack depth ratios ranging up to 0.9 and for predicting the natural frequency of a...
